What specific types of brick do you have available?

What brands do you carry?
Do you offer assistance with determining the best brick type or color for a specific project?
Do you also supply brick accessories or maintenance items?
Do you offer materials appropriate for thin brick projects?
Yes, we have a great range of lightweight alternatives to traditional brick that are perfect for applications where full-dimension masonry isn’t an ideal option. Our offerings include specialty Thin Brick Siding, Thin Brick Panels, and Thin Brick Veneers.
What standard structural masonry blocks and base elements do you provide?
We can supply core, heavy-duty building components for foundational or structural walls, including a wide selection of Masonry Blocks and Masonry Mortar Mixes.
Do you have specialty materials for fireplaces?
How can I determine if thin brick or traditional is best for my project?
That question will generally come down to the building’s existing framing and load capacity. Thin brick panels and veneers are lightweight and easy to install, so they are often considered the best for indoor features or exterior remodels where a heavy concrete footer is not available. We encourage you to contact us or drop by our showroom to discuss your project with our staff and get a professional recommendation for your unique project.
What types of stone products do you carry?
We have a huge selection of premium stone architectural elements, including raw natural stone, natural stone veneers, stone tiles, and thin stone materials.
Can you accommodate unique or custom stone cuts for a custom home?
Yes, this is one of our areas of expertise. We can provide stone and brick solutions for highly stylized custom homes, working directly with you or your builder/contractor to source the exact stone type and profiles that fit your needs and vision.
What are the benefits of using Thin Stone over traditional full-sized blocks?
Traditional stone blocks are extremely heavy and require a structure to have unique supports. With Thin Stone and natural Stone Veneers, you can achieve the same visually stunning results with significantly easier installation and reduced weight restrictions.
